From the meeting
Staff reviewed an 18-month, $267,135 contract with MDC Consulting to re-engage community partners, complete a baseline assessment, set performance measures, and develop an implementation plan for the Early Childhood Education initiative. The agenda says MDC Consulting was selected, but staff still needed approval of the scope and authority to negotiate and execute the contract. The county planned to use ARPA-enabled funding, making this a pending award with a clear implementation follow-on.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
